They bully us even for the littlest things like for just looking at them. Every time i say something back, it always gets blamed on me for starting it. I'm getting called a lot of names too. it's really getting me down and it has upset my sister a lot. My dad is trying to sort it out but doesn't know what to do or who to believe as my older sister just blame it on me and my sister the whole time. He said if it doesn't stop he will have to stop his job that he does with my mum (they have their own business). we hardly have any money already and if they stop we wont have any at all. im really worried for my dads health too as he works all day and has hardly anything to eat. It's getting really depressing, what can i do?

 where is she gonna go at 18 the only 18 yr old girls that have it all at 18 are pornstars i dont think she should leave the house but she could get a job to help out the 20 yr old to.
your sisters are two old for this nonsense you really dont need to talk to your dad you can talk to them first about it have you tried that if that doesnt work daddy is the next step your children your other two sisters are adults they should be treating you you better. you guys need to stick togather and look out for each other siblings are supposed to be best freinds

 Sounds like you and your younger sister are really helping each other, dont forget that. It sounds like your older sisters are perhaps finding the sitution diffcult to deal with too and maybe thats why they are reacting like they are. If you are worried about your mum and dad try talking to them about it. I know that will be really hard but so brave. If you cant do it directly write a letter, parents shouldnt want more than to please their children, especially if this is really getting you down. Show them this thread. You are too young to be taking the whole situation on by yourself. That is what your parents should be doing and you need to work together as a family to sort this all out!!!

 I think you and your younger sister should have a private conversation with your Dad about how you feel.
Also, your older sisters are old enough to leave the house, maybe you should suggest/ask why haven't they left, this should solve the money problem. I'm not saying your sisters are a waste of space but they have come to an age where they can lead their own lives.
Hope this helps X
